First visit for my wife and I to Dragonfly. I can say with all confidence that we will definitely be back! The food and service was outstanding. Our server Samantha was friendly but professional and offered a level of hospitality that one would expect at a fine dining restaurant. Her recommendations were all hits and a few favorites were the Japanese street corn, rib eye skewer, bone in short rib, spicy kimchi pasta and the mochi cake! Amazing flavors in every bite and we look forward to exploring the menu in the future!

We had a fantastic experience overall! Our large party visited on Christmas Eve, and everything was exceptional. The atmosphere was lively and festive, setting the perfect tone for the evening. Our server, Hailey, was absolutely amazing—attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. The staff as a whole felt genuinely welcoming, which added to the positive vibe. Highly recommend!
